Abstract
In missile application, seeker performance is directly affected by stabilization performance of gimbal. Since missile high velocity, imaging part of seeker is affected from vibration profile. This vibration cause blurring in image part. To understand response of seeker, some theoretical gimbal modeling for a conceptual seeker is done. Also optomechanical design is finished and produced with respect to conceptual seeker. For different stabilization levels under vibration profile, performance of the automatic target acquisition algorithm performance is tested. Finally, laboratory results are compared with model results.
